Letter from an Angry Puppetmaster. (To Cyranda and SquareEnix)

awesome :D, i found out i knew some old friends from valefor on ragnarok so it is lookin good :) other than the update. but they're modifying the attachments in their next update it seems.

I can see the Devs now....

"Whose bright idea was it to do Puppetmaster instead of Necromancer??? We should have just gone with Necromancer...."

Meh, i think everyone crying of the burts 'nerf' needs to wake up and smell the roses. Maybe Im jaded cause pre-burts, there were way fewer pups, and it just became bandwagon with burts. An OMG easy weapon to get that instantly took the job to #1 DD, yeah didnt see that nerf coming.

1) When the dat mining first came out, everyone assumed it would be 1 a tic like every other pet regain item (see smn and bst)
2) It would also match the previous weapons we got that added refresh/regen (1 a tic again)
3) 10 / tic was so rediculously over powered it took pup from decent dps, to face smashing every other dd in the game. Frankly, we arent supposed to be number 1 dd by a land slide, we are supposed to be just as viable an option as everyone else.

With the new ws, 10 tp regain would have been retardedly broken. Ripper is already nice, and its being made even better. A PET with a 3k ws...our SP being buffed by the changes to crit dmg.... I mean we got a lot, and they are working to make the useless attachments better.

I agree that 10 tp a tick was too much, but like SE always does, they take something ok, or mediocre and make it alot harder to get then equivalent gear from other jobs. See bst axe.

this weapon is supposed to be the elite jse weapon for pup and it is not a good weapon. Look at the other jse weaposn, some of them are very good. This weapon sucks in comparison. This should be 3 tp a tick I think, then it would be balanced.

what I am pissed about is a group got together to do the vnms for magian for victory smite, i stopped because I got burts, now the set is well past done and now will not be able to do.

then you get the anger of all of this and mix THEY DID NOT FIX THE DAMN BUGS THEY ADMIT WERE BUGS FOUR DAMN YEARS AGO......... crap again.

they add new ws and attachments, but of course in SE fashion they F up the weaponskills because they dont like to test, and they F up the attachments because they never think.

mix all that together, of course pups are going to go off the deep end. We are fed up, and they yet to answer the AI question.

But then how are pup's suppose to stand there while they put up a dark maneuver and nothing else and let the automation do the work. /sarcasm. And I have seen a few mention doing just his, don't remember if it was this forum or not.

Actually i agree with you Burt didn't fix pup, basically it made the pup strategy either use nukes (which always been one) or spam wsing. To me pup always been about thinking outside the box and not being like all the other dds. The job is still broe, but burt isn't the "fix" we need or deserve.
